This week, On the Stick, Action Cast Action Superstar Anthony “Action” Rogers joins us to talk about the rumored price of the PS4 and the price of bananas in the 70’s. After he jumps off the stick, we talk about Syndicate, Final Fantasy Tactics, XCOM, Valkyria Chronicles, I Get This Call Every Day, DmC: Devil May Cry, the Retro Game Crunch and Antichamber. The album of the week is My Bloody Valentine’s M.B.V.

We handed out our awards last week, but we love our special guests and wanted to give them one last chance to fuck 2012’s corpse. In this episode: Anthony Rogers loves him some board games, Nick Rycar give some dap to WWE ’13, Paul Norman refuses to speak because he’s a jerk, Nick Knighton opens up about open-world games, Alex Reo says BESTYEAREVER, Alexis Long dates a demon, and (as dictated by tradition and common sense) Bryce Wilson runs down his top 10 movies of the year.

The third annual Stickie Awards have finally arrived! Our year end wrap-up show is always a month or so later than all those other, crappier wrap-up shows, but that’s because we like to have time to digest the year before we try to shit it back out in podcast form. That’s not a great metaphor, but you know what was great? A bunch of videogames released in 2012! So, hey, why not sit back and relax as we recount our favorite (and least favorite) games from last year.

This week, On (a very tiny) Stick, we talk about Steam’s Big Picture Mode and navel gaze about the present and future of gaming (sorry). We also talk about: Kurt’s Wii U, Scribblenauts Unlimited, Zombi U, Double Dragon Neon and our 2nd annual gift exchange. The album of the week the soundtrack to A Charlie Brown Christmas.
